Flight Services and Systems (FSS) takes aviation safety very seriously and June happens to be National Safety Month. To celebrate, we’re sharing some information on aviation safety. This week, we’re covering the topic of bin verification.
What is bin verification?
Bin verification is a process that all FSS ramp agents perform
on arriving flights. A ramp agent ensures every bin is physically inspected.
They’ll pull the belt loader up to the aircraft, get inside the bin (even if
there’s no bags, and check every compartment to ensure nothing was left.
As an extra step, each Ramp Supervisor or Lead double checks
the bin. They also take responsibility that every bin is checks on every
flight. It’s just another way that FSS ensure a smooth operation.
